It seems to me this world is strange

From ocean’s edge to mountain range

With valleys lower than the sea

And plains as far as eyes can see.

A land of forests, hills with ruins

Lakes, rivers, streams and desert dunes

A coastline full of coves and bays

With swamps and marshes in a maze,

Mass spectacles of God’s delights

This place of dreams and hope incites

Such passion in her people here

They shall not dare to live in  fear !

The winds of change bring no relief

At times they’re cruel, not often brief

What is it that we’re meant to learn

Or how address our next concern ?

Our nation flounders all alone

For what great sin must we atone,

The sadness of our lives may be

That we remain no longer free !

I haven’t seen a cowboy of late upon the scene

There are no cowboy idols as cool as Steve McQueen

There used to be Gene Autry his horse was Champion

Or what about Hopalong with Topper on the run ?

Dale Evans rode Buttermilk, they were the best of buds

While Roy was fond of Trigger along with other studs

Silver was so beautiful, Lone Ranger was top gun

Jay Silverheels on Scout played Tonto, Mohawk “injun”.

If there’s a cowboy heaven full of remembering

I’d love to be a cowgirl, I just refuse to sing !
